Homemade naan bread

Yields1 Serving

 2 cups all purpose flour
 ½ cup lukewarm water (more or less)
 ¼ cup plain yogurt 2%
 40 ml Sunflower, grapeseed or canola oil
 1 ½ tsp instant yeast
 ½ tsp salt
 ½ tsp sugar
1

Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well, if you have a robot with a dough hook it's ideal. Knead the mixture until you obtain a homogeneous dough and it is no longer sticky.

2

Cover your bowl with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let the dough rise for at least 45 minutes, if you are in less of a hurry, 1h30 is better.

3

Deflate the dough by tapping it with your fingers.

4

Divide your dough into 4 or 6, depending on the size you want. Then roll into an elongated and sufficiently thin oval with the help of a rolling pin, or simply with your hands if you have mastered the pizza dough technique.

5

Few of us own a tandoori oven of course! I use a pizza stone on the BBQ or in the oven. Heat the stone and cook the naans for about 5 to 6 minutes, turning them over from time to time. On the BBQ I place them at the last minute directly on the grill to have this little taste of burnt dough. You can also cook them in a very hot cast iron skillet.
